| - Biggest complaint about this place? Lack of delivery.
That said, if they delivered I'd probably be ordering it every other day, so the lack of delivery is actually probably a good thing.
This is not my favorite pizza in Pittsburgh (I think Pizza Sola in Oakland is far superior in overall flavor/consistency/essence-of-pizza-ness). But it is a close second out of those I have tried. The pizza is thin, a la New York style, although I would say not as greasy.
The thing that makes this place extra special, though, is the veg- and vegan-friendliness of their menu. In addition to pizza, they have great vegan wings (although the Buffalo sauce is not vegan) and a bunch of traditional sub-style sandwiches made with vegan and vegetarian alternatives. What Spak does that no other place in PGH that I'm aware of does, is cater to those meat-like junk food cravings that vegetarians are occasionally susceptible to. The pizza would be enough to keep us coming back, but the fact that they can fill my craving for Buffalo wings? Awesome.
One thing to note: the shelf-life of some of the veg substitutions can be short. If you have a long way to go to get home, consider eating there, or finding a nearby bench if the weather is nice.
